Immersion Guest Instructor
Pronouns: She/Her
Brooke grew up exploring the woodlands, sagebrush steppe and salty shores of the Pacific Northwest. After graduating from the University of Washington, she developed a passion for the sea and spent years working for marine conservation organizations. When her attention shifted to life on land, she attended and taught at Alderleaf Wilderness College where she earned certificates in Wilderness Skills Education and Ecology, Wildlife Track & Sign (Level III), and Permaculture Design. In 2019, Brooke attended the Nature Connected Coaching program at Earth Based Institute. At Wilderness Awareness School, she graduated from the Nature Instructor Training program and worked as the admissions coordinator and Immersion Year Two core instructor. She loves wandering the wilds with people who marvel at the same things she does – animal tracks, native plants, bird calls – and sharing curiosity about all we find.
